Points, Meanings


What is the point?                                     
Well the guilty part,
The moral part
is the point

What is the meaning? 
The truthful part,
The humble part,
Is the meaning.


 So...what I am trying to say here is that points are facts and meanings are true truths, what really can be found behind something, like a terrible or wonderful truth.

The point is what you see on the outside and the meaning is what it symbolizes.

 

 Let's look at some examples:

A bus driver stops the bus so that some younger kids and others can cross the street

The point is that the bus driver is an extremely sweet person for stopping
 The meaning is that a highly civil society should good care of the members of its community who truly need help.


You spot a girl that you assume fell off from her bike with a cut on her leg... you give her a few bandages

The point is that you were being caring for doing a random act of kindness
The meaning is that people who do good deeds are highly valued in a highly civil society


A girl is hit by a car and nobody stops to help, not the driver that hit her, pedestrians, or her parents

 The point is that this situation is really heartbreaking
The meaning is that this society is very selfish and scared


Did you notice Anything?

I think that the point and meaning have are actually pretty much the same thing...

You could substitute them for each other:

 What is the meaning?
Well the guilty part,
The moral part,
 Is the meaning.

What is the point?
The truthful part,
The humble part,
Is the point.


And then,  If you look at it that way... every thing related with points and meanings are the same thing...

Points, meanings, explanations, understandings, theories (maybe going a little to far), etc.

 But then again, they must be different otherwise they would have created two separate words!



So I come to the conclusion that points and meanings can be substituted for each other but they cannot mean both definitions.


Problem solved!

Wait...what was the problem?
